If Only I Had to Beg

If Only I Had to Beg

If only I were a grain of sand
In the hearts of blood-kin
Unknown, for all time

I’d brave every storm that sweeps me along,
Leaving me stranded
And parched for my crimes

If only I starved for a scrap of their concern
But their love freely teems
Undeserved and pure
